01. How often should I trim my trees?
Most trees benefit from trimming every 1 to 3 years depending on the species, growth rate, and health. Fast growing trees may need more frequent maintenance, while mature trees need less frequent shaping.
02. Why is tree trimming important?
Tree trimming improves safety, health, and appearance. It removes weak or dead branches, prevents storm damage, increases sunlight, and promotes healthier growth.
03. What is the best time of year to trim trees?
Late fall and winter are ideal because trees are dormant and healing is faster. However, some species can be trimmed year round. We assess the tree type before recommending the right time.
04. Do you remove the debris after trimming?
Yes. Our team cleans up all branches, leaves, and debris. Your yard is left clean, neat, and ready to enjoy.
05. Can you trim trees near power lines or structures?
Yes. Our crew is trained in safe, controlled trimming for trees located near homes, roofs, fences, sheds, or power lines.
06. How do I know if a tree is dangerous or needs removal?
Warning signs include leaning, cracked trunk, dead branches, fungus at the base, soil heaving, or storm damage. Our certified experts can inspect the tree and give you a clear recommendation.
07. Do you offer emergency tree service?
Yes. We provide emergency storm response for fallen trees, hazardous limbs, and urgent safety risks.
08. What happens during a tree removal?
We safely dismantle the tree piece by piece, remove debris, and offer stump grinding if needed. We also protect nearby structures, landscaping, and utilities during the process.
09. Do you offer stump grinding?
Yes. Stump grinding removes the stump below ground level which prevents pests, stops regrowth, and makes the area usable again.
